Enthroned in rue Brunel, not far from the Palais des Congrès, The Red and the Glass opened its doors in 2002. But it was only 2 years ago, at the dawn of the health crisis, that Anita took over this authentic establishment. Indeed, behind its pretty red frontage, we discover that Le Rouge et le Verre is neither a bar nor a restaurant... but a beautiful wine cellar typically Parisian, which also makes guest table !
The 600 wine references proposed – including many biodynamic and natural wines – are carefully chosen by Anita, who works in directly with producers. There is also a nice selection of champagnes, rums and other spirits… A paradise for lovers of beautiful bottles and the most knowledgeable connoisseurs.
Especially since here, the corkage fee is not. All these beautiful bottles can be consumed on the spot or to take away, at the same price. A real added value!
During your afterworks, you can enjoy delicious boards of southwestern charcuterie and cheeses… but not only. At lunch and dinner time, the chef offers bistronomic cuisine, using fresh produce. And the menu changes often, depending on seasonal arrivals!
As starters: burrata from Puglia, pesto tomato salad, tartar with two salmon, duck terrine with pistachios... Followed by a succulent veal blanquette, summer lasagna, Royan ravioli with 3 cheeses, grilled salmon, goat cheese and zucchini quiche… Here, we advocate the homemade. And it shows on the plates!
The must-try house specialty? The wood-fire grilled beef rib, directly to the fireplace.
